Hello Felipe!

So...
1. In the south coast of the United Kingdom.
2. I don't know!
3. Sailing?
4. About 65.000.
5. Agatha Christie is a very good novelist, who writes detective novels.

I read the "welcome" information of the wikipedia about Torquay (otherwise I didn't know the population), then I thought it would be funnier to try to answer the questions from other people as to write my own ones :)

it' s very difficult to confuse your destination and don't realise it. in my case, frequently I get lost. but in many cases It's because I don't know the correct streets.
Today with Google-maps it's more difficult to be lost. when I go to a new city or destination I used frequently .
When I looked for Torquay in Internet I searched a place in Australia !!!!!! Then I realiced I was wrong.
torre Abbey is a historic building and art gallery in Torquay, Devon, which lies in the South West of England. today it's the best-preserved medieval monastery.In addition to its medieval rooms,It is know for the formal gardens, for the third largest art collection in the county of Devon and for exhibitions by contemporary artists.

Torquay has 65.245 inhabitants.

the writer Agatha Chistie was born in Torquay .She is one of the best writers ,in my opinion.

Yes it's true, Google maps has changed our lives, I use it a lot too. Thanks for your message, can I help with some sentences?
it' s very difficult to confuse your destination and don't realise it= The negative infinitive is: not to realise it. It's difficult to confuse and not to realise...
I used frequently = ..I use it frequently. You need the present simple here
in Internet = ..on the Internet
Have a good weeken!
